Ok, as well as being a celebrity addict I’m also a little bit of a magpie. Ok, I’m a total magpie; if something shines off a reflective surface well, it just has to be mine. So you can imagine my delight when I went to see Miss Beyonce Knowles at the O2 Arena in London.Continue reading

This is what I love about Paris Hilton – she can wear anything, and lots of people will gift her anything but she still wears something just beause she likes it.

One of the best parts about working in this creative industry is that I have had the chance to have develop many wonderful friendships with some very talented people. Francesca Van Der Feyst is a freelance hairdresser and men’s grooming specialist. I’ve had the pleasure of working with her during London Fashion Week where sheContinue reading

Every man in the public eye wears make-up, even Gordon Brown. His make-up routine was accidentally left in a taxi by an aide.
